He was so cute. He is almost nine, but he held my hand for a lot of it (which made me smile). My oldest has run 2 with me, but this was his first. Now he wants to run therm all! I told him he needs to get a job to pay for his race fees and he needs to knock about 2.5 minutes/mile off his time. He said......ok. When is the next one?! Love it.
